Dr. Ansuman Mitra, Secretary, Medical Service Centre (MSC) with hundreds of medicos, nurses, paramedics, and citizens at large protesting at the gates of Swasthya Bhawan (Dept. of Health & Family Welfare, GoWB), Kolkata when their representative team was stopped by very large battalions of police force today, 25 Nov 2025. The citizens, many above 80 had come, led by the umbrella citizens' body, Voice of Abhaya - Voice of Women, to meet & lodge a protest with the Principal Secretary, Dept. of H&FW, GoWB, and Directors of Medical Education & Health, request to allow Dr. Aniket Mahata to join as Senior Resident at RG Kar Medical College as per the order of the Hon'ble Division Bench, Calcutta High Court (MAT 1736 of 2025 with IA No. CAN 1 of 2025) upholding the original merit list. Dr. Aniket Mahata, an organiser of MSC at Kolkata & West Bengal State, who has been a leading face of the historic Abhaya Movement, a movement that has witnessed the participation and support of millions of people across the world - has not been allowed to join RG KAR Medical College as Senior Resident despite being allotted as per the merit list more than half this year back. [https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/west-bengal/calcutta-high-court-directs-west-bengal-government-to-engage-rg-kar-protest-face-aniket-mahato-at-same-hospital-as-senior-resident/article70088388.ece]; [https://medicaldialogues.in/news/health/doctors/hc-upholds-junior-doctors-posting-at-rg-kar-medical-college-hospital-155816]What infuriated the people is that despite prior intimation, neither the Principal Secretary, nor any of their Directors could make time to meet the representatives - plainly making evident that have no answer other than nepotism & cover-up of criminal highups responsible for the murder-r**e. The level of democracy becomes all the more evident when citizens have to show strength to make the Government comply with the single bench, & then double bench Hon'ble Kolkata High Courts, yet none attend to such voice. At a time when the people's health is facing a severe financial crisis, the expenditure of crores of rupees of public funds for such an unjustified and unholy purpose by the Govt. is extremely unfortunate. It appears to be an act of vindictiveness aimed at suppressing a just movement. If such activity by the police was evident at the scenes of criminal assault then, justice could have prevailed.
Demands highlighted: allowing Dr. Aniket Mahata to join RGKAR Medical College as Senior Resident immediately, in compliance with the High Court's orders; ensure strong and effective measures to prevent sexual harassment and all forms of workplace harassment; Take strict action against all culprits involved in such activities within the health sector.

𝕊𝕦𝕓𝕛𝕖𝕔𝕥 : Expedite NEET PG Counselling Process With immediate effect

In a press statement today, 𝐷𝑟. 𝐵ℎ𝑎𝑏𝑎𝑛𝑖 𝑆ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑘𝑎𝑟 𝐷𝑎𝑠, General Secretary, Medical Service Centre said, "We are stating grave concern regarding the delay in NEET PG 2025 counselling. Nearly about two months after the results were declared (August 19, 2025), the seat matrix remains incomplete. Even after starting the counselling process and choice filling mcc stopped the process with a statement stating error in seat matrix.

Hospitals across India currently operate with only two resident batches, placing unsustainable pressure on the healthcare workforce and compromising patient care delivery. Thousands of qualified doctors await postgraduate training while the 2025-26 academic session faces jeopardy. This undermines both medical education and healthcare delivery nationwide and also creating psychological burden among medical students.

🅦︎🅔︎ 🅓︎🅔︎🅜︎🅐︎🅝︎🅓︎
immediate commencement of the neet pg counselling

1. Release the finalised (revised) seat matrix immediately

2. Commence Round 1 counselling registration without any delay

3. Ensure the academic session begins without further delay.

PRESS RELEASE

Prof. Vinayak Nerlikar, President and Dr. Bhabani Sankar Das, General Secretary, MEDICAL SERVICE CENTRE upheld the Right to Health of people to take only WHO-formulated ORS, for treating diarrhoea and dehydration by removing the misleading use of word ORS as suffix or prefix in Tradename of commercial drinks not confirming with ORS formula. They decried the retrogressive step of Delhi High Court to uphold super-profit of companies, and appealed to the citizens of India to boycott commercial products bearing such dubious labels:
"On 15 October 2025 , Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) ordered to remove the word ORS as suffix or prefix in any Tradename. It is needless to say that FSSAI was compelled to conceive this after 8 years' long battle of pediatrician Dr. Sivaranjani Santosh. We hail the valiant selfless long public health battle of Dr. Santosh for the truth, that any marketed sugary drink (often labelled as ORS) are not the scientific WHO formulated ORS; thus adversely impacts on the health of children & common people.
ORS was painstakingly invented during the repeated killing Cholera epidemics in the last century by Dr. Dilip Mahalanabis; and World Health Organization(WHO) adopted the formulation universally. ORS consists of fixed dose salt amount of Sodium Chloride, Potassium Chloride, Trisodium Citrate & anhydrous Glucose, of total 20.5 g, to be dissolved in exact ONE litre of Water and must to be consumed within 24 hrs.WHO-recommended ORS, a drug vital for treating diarrhoea which causes 13% of deaths in Indian children under five. Whereas marketised so called ORSL, having high concentration of Glucose, Taurine, flavours and preservatives which have definite ill effects on health, and NOT AT ALL THE DRUG ORS.


The FSSAI recently banned the use of the 'ORS' label on products not conforming to the WHO formula, but the Delhi High Court has granted a limited stay, allowing JNTL to represent its case against the order, citing stocks worth up to ₹180 crores. It is definitely a very retrogressive step of Delhi High Court in view of public health concern.The Right to Life of general people was not considered in Delhi High Court judgement. We plea The Supreme Court of India to intervene into the matter and to revoke the stay on FSSAI order.

We demand the Union Government of India to be more vigilant on pharmacological and food products. The organisations like FSSAI, CDSCO (Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation) should take active role to prevent further mishap.

We also appeal the people of India to boycott commercial sugary drinks as ORSL or others bearing such dubious labels, and to take only WHO formulated ORS, definitely better to take ORS Salt Sachet in drinking water for treating diarrhoea and dehydration."

In a press statement today, Dr. Bhabani Shankar Das, General Secretary, Medical Service Centre said,
"After hearing about the gang r**e of a second-year medical student from Odisha, of a private medical college in Durgapur, West Bengal last night, we are left speechless, extremely sad and finding no harder words for condemnation of the heinous incident. The lack of justice in the brutal murder and r**e of Abhaya in R G KAR Medical College Hospital followed by r**e of a Law Student within the campus of Kasba Law College , Kolkata has emboldened criminals to perpetrate such crime everywhere. The civil and Police administration of the state government have miserably failed to ensure the safety of girls in the state of WB.
We demand an immediate judicial investigation into yesterday's incident and exemplary punishment for the culprits. The State Government must adopt prompt and proper measures to prevent happenings of such ghastly incidents all over the state."
